Bip, they are excellent questions now and then. First thing is first, while I said all along that I absolutely hated the Jared Jefferies excuse, we still really need him. Secondly, I think the main thing is we HAVE to split up Francis and Marbury, b/c it's not working and it sure doesn't look like it will work. Hence, I think the starting lineup should feature Q at the 2 with Jared at the 3, with of course Lee and Frye starting. Not Curry.

It's not gonna happen though. Isiah has all of his eggs in Franbury and Curry and it seems like he's going to ride and die with them, and as a Knicks imposter, I expect him to die soon. When I mean soon, I mean within' the next month.

Secondly Bip, I just don't see how someone who deserves playing time will get in. Renaldo, for the time being, is screwed, as well as probably Nate Robinson. I just don't see how those guys are going to see daylight, b/c again I say, he's gonna ride and die with the guys who gave up all his eggs for.

So Bip, I think while you're questions are excellent, I think it begs to raise the bigger question, since I feel so strongly that Isiah will be gone by Christmas, how does Herb Williams deal with this roster from January to April?

1.) The first question I asked was how were Steph and Stevie going to fit into a motion offense when they have always dominated the ball? I didn't say they couldn't fit I just asked if people felt they could. 12 games in I raise the question again. Will they make the adjustment or is it too late at this point.

2.) What happens when JJ comes back? I originally asked the what if question. What if Nate and Jamal outplay the starting backcourt. Who sits when JJ comes back? And what if the person that sits has a problem sitting? What if ISiah sits someone that is deserving of playing time? How will Isiah juggle egos and team chemistry?
